As of the current patch, does anyone know if the Swarms, Sacrifice, and/or Command artifacts prevent radio scanners from spawning

Thank you. I am grinding for the Sundered Groves scanner and I've been there like 5 times, still haven't seen it with the artifacts I mentioned being on. I have read online that this is the way to get them to spawn more often, but man, they are a pain. I even made sure to get a radar equipment to help me find it, but no luck yet.

I went through Siren's Call about 30-40 times before the scanner spawned. Nearly as many times for Sky Meadow. The rest were relatively quick, only taking a handful of runs each.

Only been through Sundered Grove once so far in a few cycles of fourth stage, so can't really comment on that one yet.

What if I told you I only got Titanic Plains a few days ago despite pouring 100+ hours in the game (I wiped my save for 1.0) ? It was the last environment log I missed (beside the new stage) and it took me this long to finally find it. I no doubt had it spawn before and missed it but, still, they're rare. Pray to RNG-sus and remember to visit the bazaar on stage 3 to increase your chance, all you can do.

Yea, I wanted to get the environment log so I would have no reason to go there by my own free will, but it's proving to be quite a challenge to grind. I haven't gotten it yet, even after being there like 6 times with a radar (equipment). I will post when I finally get it.

Yea exactly, I am trying to guarantee the stage as often as possible through the shop, and even running swarms, sacrifice and command to make my odds as good as possible:

Swarms - just to allow me to get more items via sacrifice
Sacrifice - so I've read that no chests spawning allows more room in the pool or whatever, for the environment scanner to spawn
Command - no 3D printers spawn, allegedly freeing up room in the "pool" for environment scanners to spawn

Will post here when I get it and the circumstances (run time, artifacts, etc.) I obtain it under.

But I mean, did you eventually got it, at least? :D For this spesific map? I feel something is WAY OFF with this map... Is this devs trolling or random bug?

yea i did get the radar scanner, there was a bug that was preventing the scanner from spawning but they patched it ages ago.

Mb it surfaced again >_<
Or I just had biggest unluck streak ever... I'm using swarm + command + sacrifice and speedrun first 3 levels, get to newt, buy shroom map... But nothing... I also used up all my lunar coins so now I'm broke and will have to farm them :sadelf:
